It was a productive day, just a bit frustrating.
It started with me bathing all three dachshunds with a new shampoo. Mmmmm. Smelled good, and now they all smell good. Emily helped me to dry them all off and then she snuggled Arnie for a while.
My big goal, after that was to get a four foot rigid kiddie pool for the pups. I wanted to get it now so they could play in it during the coming heat wave, but I also want to get this pool now for use next year when Greta has her next litter. This plastic pool would be so easy to keep clean and would literally grow with the pups.
I called Wal-$@*! which is about 15 miles from here and asked if they had this pool. “Sure!” I was reassured and so I set off to pick it up. When I arrived I found NO POOLS!!! Surely this was a mistake. I asked to see the manager who apologized and then assured me that another Wal-$@*! had it. This was another 10 miles. So off I went. When I got there…you guessed it. No pools!!!
I decided it was not my day and didn’t even bother to get upset. I bought myself an electric curler set and then I called Hubby and asked if he wanted anything from that end of town and he wanted two bottles of Scotch that were on sale. Not a problem, but oh do I wish I could drink. After a day like this I could use a stiff scotch!
I arrived home and was greeted by four loving dogs and one grateful husband. I got kisses from all and then sat down to rest. I was tired.
Of course pups and Hubby alike needed to be fed. Steaks, for us, and the usual for the doggies. Now we are all happy and cuddling and I am ending the day with a nice German coffee. What a treat!
Hi Mom,
Hope you have a good day today. Sounds like a nice weekend! The sunset picture is absolutely gorgeous! I took some nice ones of a double rainbow up in L. this weekend. I will send you a link once I upload them all!
Love you,
Mandy
There are days like this, when you look for something you can’t find it and when you don’t need it you see it everywhere ! I was looking for a small litterbox for my kitten, of course I found none and the day where I was looking for somthing else I found it suddenly. BTW the nice turikish toilet was at the airport ! the others I have seen where not in such a good shape, lol !
